Explanation

The question requires matching prominent Indian authors with their respective regional languages, all of whom are Jnanpith Award winners. Birendra Kumar Bhattacharyya was a pioneering Assamese novelist and short story writer who received the Jnanpith Award in 1979 for his work 'Mritunjay' [t1][t4][t6]. Rahman Rahi is a distinguished Kashmiri poet who was honored with the award in 2004 [t1][t2][t6]. Vinda Karandikar was a celebrated Marathi poet and writer who received the recognition in 2003 [t1][t3][t6]. Mahasweta Devi was an eminent Bengali writer and social activist, known for her works on tribal communities, and was awarded the Jnanpith in 1996 [t6][t8]. Matching these pairs: Bengali (1) with Mahasweta Devi (D), Marathi (2) with Vinda Karandikar (C), Kashmiri (3) with Rahman Rahi (B), and Assamese (4) with Birendra Kumar Bhattacharyya (A). This corresponds to the code 4-3-2-1 for A-B-C-D.
